The method is based on the adsorptive accumulation of complex molybdenum(VI) with 8-hydroxyquinoline, using voltammetric square wave cathodic stripping voltammetry. The composition and concentration of the supporting electrolyte, frequency (Hz), amplitude (mV) and deposition time (s), were optimized by factorial design in relation to current reduction of molybdenum(VI). The optimum methodology provided the following values for the process variables: scan increase (0.5 mV), pulse amplitude (127 mV), frequency (96 Hz), adsorption time (80 s) and drop size (0.60 mm2), the concentration of KNO3 (2.0 mol L-1), acetate buffer (0.5 mol L-1) and 8-hydroxyquinoline (0.01 mol L-1). The results obtained after optimization showed a linear response in the range from 1.0 to 6.0 mg L-1 and limits of detection and quantification, respectively equal to 0.02 and 0.08 mg L-1. The molybdenum contained in the samples were determined using the optimized methodology, with values consistent with the values determined by atomic emission spectrometry with inductively coupled plasma (ICP-AES).
